U Mobile encourages 5G adoption by providing solutions that leverage AI, automation, and MEC, unlocking enterprise potential and value.

SAN ANTONIO, Dec. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan recently assessed the mobile services industry and, based on its findings, recognizes U Mobile with the 2024 Malaysian Company of the Year Award. The company recognizes the local community’s need for fast and reliable connectivity and its role in promoting digitalization for the next generation. As part of its vision to be Malaysia’s favorite mobile and digital services provider, U Mobile is committed to bringing the benefits of 5G technology to consumers, enterprises, and the public sector, and enabling the digital infrastructure needed to drive digital adoption. U Mobile innovates so that its products and services offer unbeatable value at accessible price points. It provides seamless, unlimited connectivity to the masses with various options tailored to different needs and budgets. The company has maintained its prepaid stronghold for many years, ranking high with consumers and evidenced by its consecutive awards for its prepaid plans.  U Mobile’s revised data speeds and Fair Usage Policy for its award-winning prepaid range push boundaries with seamless streaming, gaming, and browsing, raising industry standards in customer experience. In East Malaysia, U Mobile launched U Borneo plans specifically designed to meet the needs of East Malaysian subscribers with up to 2,000 GB 5G data for only RM15 monthly. Across all its product offerings, U Mobile has successfully provided the best value for the price despite market challenges, as seen by its increasing revenue, postpaid subscribers, and broadband subscriber numbers.

For enterprises, U Mobile constructed a product offering portfolio that looks into the needs of big and small businesses. A highlight and critical differentiator is the monthly complimentary global roaming, which is capped only after 15 GB and incoming calls from 63 destinations. This enables its micro-SME customers to stay connected with their partners without incurring bill shock or incurring high travel claims. Other innovative enterprise service offerings include its U Biz Fibre 10Gbps offering, which provides uninterrupted connectivity with complimentary secure DNS. As Malaysia’s fastest business fiber plan, U Biz Fibre 10Gbps aligns with U Mobile’s ambition to drive digitalization for enterprises by providing a plan designed to handle data-intensive tasks that support technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and immersive high-definition media. Further leveraging its network and emerging technologies, U Mobile also has a portfolio of enterprise solutions aimed at reaping the benefits of digital transformation for businesses, such as U Biz dedication internet access (DIA) service, U Biz P2P (point-to-point), and U Biz Private Network.

Mei Lee Quah, director of ICT research at Frost & Sullivan, observed, “By leveraging 5G technology, U Mobile has shown effort and dedication to shaping a digitally inclusive future with enterprises and supporting Malaysia’s ambition to be a digitally enabled and technology-driven nation is starting to bear fruit, with early results showing promising outcomes.”

U Mobile’s collaboration with global technology players increases its leadership edge in 5G, helping it accelerate 5G adoption within the enterprise segment and elevate the customer experience. It can more effectively and efficiently explore the potential of 5G innovation and how it can digitally transform various industries, particularly with 5G solutions and use cases for the enterprise segment. An equally critical enabler is the opportunity for U Mobile to upgrade its technology to better support enterprises. Its partnerships foster greater efficiency, speed, and agility for both consumer and enterprise segment applications and help improve the intelligence of U Mobile’s network with autonomous network development and deployment and with AI/machine learning adoption. This leads to more efficient and reliable mobile network operations and better performance.

“Over the past year, U Mobile rolled out many new plans to address market needs and entered into multiple partnerships to tap into 5G’s potential. The company’s efforts to innovate will likely receive a boost from technology upgrades; with better technological capabilities and a wider scope, the company can make an even bigger impact on the local community and the country’s growth,” added Quah. By constantly pushing boundaries and creating competitive differentiators, U Mobile is quickly becoming a formidable participant in the Malaysian mobile services market. With its strong overall performance, U Mobile earns Frost & Sullivan’s 2024 Malaysia Company of the Year Award in the Mobile Services industry.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents a Company of the Year award to the organization that demonstrates excellence in terms of growth strategy and implementation in its field. The award recognizes a high degree of innovation with products and technologies, and the resulting leadership in terms of customer value and market penetration.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices awards recognize companies in various regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development.

SANTA FE, N.M., June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What should buyers and sellers really consider when choosing a real estate team in Santa Fe? In a recent feature with HelloNation, Stephanie Duran of Veritas Real Estate Partners offers clear guidance: look for embedded local expertise, not just credentials. The article outlines how the most effective real estate professionals go beyond market stats to provide clients with insight into lifestyle factors, neighborhood nuance, and the long-term implications of a purchase.

Duran emphasizes that Santa Fe is a city composed of distinct micro-markets. A strong Santa Fe real estate team understands how proximity to Canyon Road, differences in elevation, or traffic patterns can alter a homeowner’s daily experience. These seemingly small details affect everything from home value to livability. Long-standing teams often bring crucial zoning and land use insight that helps buyers and sellers assess not just a home’s current appeal, but its future prospects as well.

The article also highlights the importance of listening. Real estate professionals who succeed in Santa Fe don’t simply push listings—they interpret what clients value and filter accordingly. With a market that ranges from traditional adobe homes to contemporary architectural builds, clarity and restraint are essential. The piece, What to Look For in a Santa Fe Real Estate Team, features advice from Stephanie Duran of Veritas Real Estate Partners on how local real estate expertise translates into stronger outcomes for clients.

Xiao-I Corporation Provides Update on First-Instance Rulings in Patent Litigation Against Apple; Company Intends to Appeal to the Supreme People’s Court

SHANGHAI, June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Xiao-I Corporation (NASDAQ: AIXI) (“Xiao-I” or the “Company”), a leading developer of AI solutions, provided a material update on the patent-related litigation between its variable interest entity, Shanghai Xiao-I Intelligent Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Xiao-I”), and Apple Inc. and its affiliated entities (collectively, “Apple”) before the Shanghai High People’s Court.

On June 10, 2026, the Shanghai High People’s Court issued first-instance judgments on two parallel cases:

Invention Patent Infringement action (Case No. (2020) Hu Zhi Min Chu No. 7): The court dismissed all litigation claims filed by Shanghai Xiao-I, in which the Company alleged that Apple’s Siri technology infringed Shanghai Xiao-I’s invention patent titled “A Chat Robot System” (Patent No. 200410053749.9).Confirmation of non-patent-infringement action (Case No. (2022) Hu Zhi Min Chu No. 3): The court ruled that the specified iPhone models equipped with Siri do not fall within the protection scope of the subject patent. The court also rejected Apple’s claim for RMB 2 million in compensation for reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney fees, translation fees and notarization fees.

As previously disclosed on March 31, 2026, the Supreme People’s Court of the People’s Republic of China issued a final and binding second-instance ruling upholding the validity of the subject patent and rejecting Apple’s application to have the subject patent declared invalid. The validity of the patent remains final and non-appealable. The Supreme People’s Court’s prior ruling addressed only the validity of the patent. The present proceedings concern whether Apple’s Siri products fall within the scope of the patent claims and therefore constitute infringement.

The Company is disappointed with the first-instance rulings on infringement findings. The Company respectfully disagrees with the factual and legal findings reflected in the first-instance judgments and believes substantial grounds exist for appeal. The Company intends to formally lodge appeals with the Supreme People’s Court within the statutory time limit. The Company will vigorously assert its legitimate intellectual property rights and interests in accordance with applicable laws.

While Xiao-I remains confident in the merits of its case, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the appellate proceedings. There is no guarantee that the Company will be awarded any financial compensation or obtain a favorable ruling on appeal. Investors are strongly encouraged to conduct their own due diligence and review all relevant information before making investment decisions.

Xiao-I will keep shareholders and the public informed of any material further developments in a timely manner.
